Thank you very much.
I know, for example, in Nova Scotia right now, with the fires impacting many of the residents in Upper Tantallon, Hammonds Plains and so on—including my son and daughter—there are a lot of questions on operationalizing things, on forest management practices, and on how we should be designing subdivisions with some attention to future fire possibilities and putting firebreak mechanisms in place. That's extremely important.
Can you explain how large and small communities—rural communities I guess you'd call them—are facing the issues of climate change and addressing their infrastructure needs differently? How can the federal government take this into account and provide more equitable access to funding in the future in terms of how we deal with that?
